Review of "Inside A Twisted Mind: A Collection of Scary Tales" by C.J.Kelley

In the beginning of the book, the author talks about how he is not normal, that his mind is warped, and invites you into his mind. He states there are different doors in the mind and that they were created in his twisted mind and appear in a whimsical fashion. He describes that Once he enters a door, the whole thought has to be played out before the door opens back up so he can leave.

That being said, this was a collection of short stories. I thought they were very well done. Scary and twisted. Behind door one there is a problem at a carnival. Door two is just wicked scary I cannot mention anything or I would spoil it. Behind the third door is a hungry couple. Behind the fourth door is an innocent inmate. Door five is just called "Trapped". Door six has a patient in a hospital. But why does she keep fighting the staff? And what is really going on?

So those are all the doors. I found the stories scary and with an awesome twist at the end which not to many people can pull off. You are just reading and then, the last few sentences really throw you because you had no idea. You are invested in the characters in a short amount of time. But horror is really about who lives and who dies.

About Me

I am a good person who believes in the good in others. I am a fiercely loyal friend. I am an RN and not working right now.I plan on going back, which may not be an option due to my disabilities, but I have other options I am exploring. I love books! I, growing up, always had a book in my hand. I love getting lost in a world of books, a world that is not my same day to day world. I love comic books.I went to my first ComicCon this year and am already ready for next year! I adore movies.I will watch almost any movie but prefer horror, dark comedies, IFC type movies, and classics like The Postman Always Rings Twice. I love TCM! I am a big kid! I love Nickelodeon. I love all types of music. I tend to lean towards heavy metal, classic rock, old rap, some top 40. I love the winter and snow,so I am thrilled that it is Novemeber. There is nothing at all that compares to a walk in the snow. I have a wonderful husband of 13 years who is a one in a million find. He knows me better than I know myself. I have a mini-poodle rescue named Nino. I call him my companion because he follows me everywhere and is very in tune to me, very protective of me especially concerning my disabilities. He has his own blog! I have a lot of disabilities but people are surprised to find this out because I am always laughing and smiling and in a good mood. Why cry? It changes nothing and gives you a headache! I would love to do a lot more traveling. I am a homebody but going to PA and WY were very memorable for me. I love bakery deserts like Canolis. A chocoholic - Godiva all the way!! My favorite is anything mint chocolate. I also love and collect stickers! I have been reading a lot lately and I love it.
